FREE TRADE.

The reduction OF internal revenue and
the taking Of revenue stamps from Pro-
prietary Medicines, no doubt has largely
benefited the consumers, as well as reliev-
Ing the burden of home manufacturers.
Especially in the case with Green
August Flower and Boschee's German
Syrup, as the reduction of thirty-six cents
per dozen, has been added to increase the
size of the bottles containing these rome
dies, thereby giving one-fifth more medi-
cine in the 70 cent size, The August
Fvoa0er for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint
and the German Syrup for Cough and
Lung troubles, have perhaps, the largest
sale of any medicine in the world The
advantage of increased size of the bottles
will be greatly appreciated by the sick and
afflicted, in every town and village In civil
lizod countries. Sample bottles for 10 cts.
remain the same size. co. WY

immortality, in any guise, is very
despicable, but where the sacred
trust of human wrecks comes to be
used for the purpose of lustful pros
titution by the employed guardian,
then it is both loathsome and fiend
ish. Our readers will peruse with
modification, disgust and anger, the
report of the Committee that inves-
tigated the Insane Asylum. 1t was
mixed political Commission, of two
republicans and three democrats, all
respected lawyers and physicians,
competent to hear and determine as
to the weight of the testimony, and
that must have been strong to obtain
unanimous conclusion. 1t is sick
ening evidence of mems inhumanity
and reveals a depth of baseness in
the management of a sacred trust,
that is horrible and revolving even in
the smallest particular There should
be system of appointments, duties
and espionage that would prevent
even the suspicion of secresy between
the management and employees and
also board of regular and expert
physicians to visit and report at
stated periods, as to every particular
connected with the institution.

The South Waiting For a Leader.
Macon Telegram. (Dem.)

WHAT'S to be the outcome Of the po-
litical question no man can tell. We
feel that a great injustice is being
done the young men of the South
who stand burdened with the respon-
sibility of a great era in the history
of their section and see the sunburst
of new prosperity. In all depart
ments of our social life they are to
be found, thinkers who hesitate be-
tween traditions and living facts.
Some day we know, there must be q
change; the hour may not be far of
when this vast element in national
politics will fail to obey blindly, un
hesitatingly and without understand
ing the signal Of distant managers,
when men here and there in it will
rally about principles and the party
machines rust in all its parts. There
never was in all its history a time
when the South needed great lead
er more than she does now.

KNIGHTS or LA9OR.

Every working man who saves a
cent Of his earnings is surely becom-
ing capitalist, to some extent, and
viii in time become an employer.
Every one who spends the last cent
of the weekly wage and goes in debt
besides, will never amount to much
and will also be without credit, and
is a fit subject for striker or COM
munist. Every employer whose
losses exceed his profits, must soon
fail, and the employees lose their
employment. Both are wrecked.
Losses to employers means reduc-
ton of expenses in every department
OF labor and a reduction of wages
means a looping of Of his expenses
to the laborer. A combination in
the nature OF monopoly either OF
capital or Of labor, is therefore i'm
proper and not beneficial to either

Protection North and South.

The break so long Impending In
the Democratic ranks on the tariff
question seems to be finally at hand.
The occasion of the rupture is the
recent refusal of Speaker Carlisle to
permit even consideration of the
tobacco tax reduction measure and
his contemptuous treatment of the
letter OF Congressman Randall, Hen
derson and Wise. So wide does the
breach appear to be that no compro-
mise is probable. The arbitrary ac-
tion Of the Speaker has at last con-
WINGED the Protection wing of the
Democracy that they cannot look for
Justice fran the Free-trade wing and
that henceforth the two faction s
must work apart. The attitude of
the Free traders appears to have
been deliberately taken, as it is
stated that the Speaker did not de-
eide what course to pursue until af-
ter consulting with Mr., Morrison
the Democratic members of the Ways
and Means Committee and other
leading Democrats.
AS might have been expected, the
protest against this course comes
with the most vigor and energy from
the South. Nearly all the leading
Democratic papers in Virginia, North
Carolina, Georgia and Alabama are
pronounced in their dissent. The
Birmingham, Ala, Age, for instance
says: The Democratic party is now
divided by great industrial policy.
The ruling of the Speaker against all
revenue reform which does not antic.
ipate a policy of delay and antagon-
ism to the manufacturing industries
of the American people opens the
campaign of the Morrison wing
against the promotion Of those in
dustries.' 1t adds further that the
Morrison Democracy has thrown
down the gage of battle to the South
and that the contest will be welcom.
ed. The Southern states are just
beginning to taste the benefits OF
Protection. They are having mar
velous growth as a result of this pol
icy, and it is not surprising that
their antagonism to a change is pro
nounced and vigorous.
Along with this spread OF the Pro
lection idea in the South it is en-.
couraging to see an earnest effort be
ing made to maintain the ascenden
cy of the same principle in The
North. One illustration of this is {
large meeting of pro inent manu-
facturers and supporters Of this pol
icy held in Boston last Saturday
The object was to promote the for
nation of Protective tariff clubs
which could counterfeit the efforts
made by the Fres-trade clubs to
spread their ideas among the voters
It has been the hope of the Free
traders that they would be able tt
make up in Northern states for tn,
strength they were evidently losing
in the Southern states. They have
confidently believed that there woult
be another shifting of the tariff seen
cry, and that, while the South veer
cd round to the early Protection
principles Of John G. Calhoun, tn,
North would change back to tn.
early Free-trade principles of DAME
Webster This exchange the Free
traders would gladly make, and t.
guard against it should now be thu
chief aim Of the Protectionists. |
the voters ere kept informed on thi
question there is no fear of a wron!

end are worth of commentator ant
